"They are NOT cartoo--" you stop yourself, shake your head, and massage your eyes. You don't have time to get roped into this debate again. Being late on your first day of class might make bitch-pigs swoon in the anime realm -- but it's not going to win you any points with Mr. Langley, your homeroom teacher and Quiz Bowl coach. You need to skedaddle.

You grab your backpack and push past Cerise. "Don't molest anyone today, you little creep!" she calls after you as you run downstairs.

In the kitchen, you grab a piece of toast but don't have any time to butter it. Shoving it haphazardly into your open maw, you head for the foyer. But standing in your way at the front door is your mom.

"Where do you think you're going?" she asks, staring down the bridge of her nose.

"School. Obviously."

"I can see that, you brat. But you need to take some lunch." She holds out a brown paper bag stuffed so full of food it's about to burst. You grab it from her unceremoniously.

She huffs. "Aren't you even going to thank me?"

You swallow a bite of toast and grumble. "Yeah. Thanks."

"Don't get the wrong idea, now. I don't care if you have anything to eat, but I can't let the school administration find out I'm not feeding you and decide I'm some kind of negligent parent."

"Oh, no. Of course not. You'll make mother of the year at this rate."

Just like with Cerise, you push past your mom, thinking about how the rotten apple never falls far from the tree.

"And don't buy anything out of those godawful vending machines they have on campus," she says as you go. "Not that I care if you eat healthy, I just don't want you spending any of my hard-earned money!"

Out in the drive, your childhood friend Whitney is waiting. Well-- it might be more apt to call her a "childhood hanger-on." Why she insists on following you around like a lost puppy remains beyond your comprehension. There's no way she could be attracted to you, because you're 99% certain she's a rug muncher.

"Ally!" She calls. She's decked out in her usual late-summer attire of spats and a tank. She doesn't even wear a bra, the harlot. Her darkly tanned skin glistens with morning sweat. "I was about to give up on you ever coming out of your spank-cave."

"I wish you would have," you grouse as you walk by. She spins on her heels to follow your brisk pace. "So what remedial courses are you taking this year?" you ask her over your shoulder, by way of making small talk.

"Algebra, chemistry, English... oh, and they let me into auto shop."

"That's nice. Learning a trade is important for people who can't go to college."

"I was worried they wouldn't, because of that thing last year..."

She means the time an assistant principal caught her toking up behind the bleachers of the gym. Imitating the school's shop-teacher-slash-baseball-coach, she continues in a faux baritone: "being a student in auto shop is a position of trust! Not just anyone can do it!"

"That's awful. If you keep getting away with your rampant drug use, you'll never learn."

"Oh stop being such a dweeb you dweeb. It was the first time I ever did the stuff."

"Pretty soon you'll be fellating homeless men for heroin."

"You are so gross! I don't do drugs. You can't play soccer with smoker's lung."

"You can't play soccer with a 1.3 grade point average, either."

"Actually-- that's sorta what I wanted to ask you about..."

You stop and look at her.

"Algebra this semester is gonna be super duper hard. Like, who even needs that crap? It's gay as shit. But if I can't solve for X or whatever, they're gonna kick me off the team. Can you tutor me this year?"

[ ] Ok.
[ ] Ok... if you pay me.
[ ] No way.

"Why would I waste precious mental energy on you? You're a lost cause. Focus on learning how to turn wrenches. You should be able to grasp that."

"You're such a jerk!"

Before you can make a comeback, she kicks you in the shins. You stumble backward with a howl and gawk at her. When she charges forward with hate in her eyes, you kick back out of pure instinct. The two of you end up in a spastic back-and-forth jig of below the belt kicks. Of course, Whitney is far more coordinated. Eventually she lands a hard blow to your upper thigh, flooring you. You singe your palms on the sun-baked concrete sidewalk.

She looms over you to deliver even more kicks. You clamber to your knees and hold out a hand to stop her. "You're an animal," you cry, standing again on uncertain legs. "I could press charges if I wanted to. You belong in a reformatory."

"You belong on the moon!" she screams. When Whitney gets really angry, her insults become complete nonsense. You decide to let it pass.

"I'm not going to suffer the frustration of trying to teach you. My time isn't yours to just fritter away."

"Fritter? What the hell does that even mean?" She gives you another sharp kick to the shin that nearly bowls you over again. You give her a hard shove in retaliation.

"You're such a shit," she says. "I don't even know why I hang out with you."

"Me either."

"If I fail math because you didn't help me, you're gonna fucking pay for it." She grabs you by the collar. "And I mean it."

You wrench yourself free and straighten your shirt. "I'm sure you do. But honestly, Whitney - you should be used to failure by now."

You continue the trek to school, your walk now a pained limp. Sullenly, Whitney follows a few paces behind. You try not to pay attention to her.

As you round a corner just a few blocks from school, you bump head first into a girl who looks like she came straight from the early 1900s. She wears a prim black dress with a skirt that's positively matronly, and e̳͙̩̖̳̼͜͢n̢͉͙̖̗̜̠̩͜ͅͅo̢͚͉̬̟̺̭͡r̸̨̭̭̳̻̩ͅm̡̰̘͔͈o̢̯̟͔̙̹u̘͕̟̯̦͙̦͉̕͡͝ś̴̨̫̥͖̺͇̗̺͓ ̗̱͓͙͘r͉̰̱͔̹̼̼̭͞ơ̥̦̭̭͕͖͓̕u̵͇͎ͅn̡͚̖͢d̨̫̺͖͖ ̱̦̞̥͝͡e͖͉̟̹̘͜ỳ̸̙̯͇̳͎ͅḙ̖̺̖̣̣͔͟g͙̹l̙̞̥̙̣͢a̷̻s̪͕̗̫̘̣̠͡s̛̻̗͕e͉̬̖̪̤ś͕̳͜ͅ. She looks so pale she might be anemic, and carries a parasol.

"Watch where you're walking," you snap at her.

She regards you for a few seconds, casting a glance at Whitney as well. "Are you Alabaster Soliloquy?"

"What? How do you know me?"

The girl smiles. "That's not what I thought at all. How disappointing. Oh well." She steps off the curb, turning her back to you, and begins down the crosswalk.

You look back at Whitney. She shrugs.

"Hey!" You call. "You can't go around saying my name and being all mysterious and then expect me to just let you--"

"Walk away?" The girl says, laughing. Her laughter sounds like an honest-to-god "ufufufu."

"How do you know me?" You demand.

"That's for later, Alabaster Soliloquy," she says. She pulls back her parasol for the first time. Her hair is as black as r͝e̵̥͖̥d̪. Her eyes are shining, dewy with some false sense of superiority despite the difference in height and her anemic frame. "I'll have time to crush you later."

"You're not gonna crush shit," Whitney warns, from behind you. When you're threatened directly like this, it seems she's willing to set aside her previous anger. "Who do you think you are? You weird little midget!"

"Aren't the lower classes so cute?" Vivian says. "Tell your lesbian friend that insults such as these will not be tolerated..." She props her parasol on her shoulder and turns to leave.

"Hold on," you say, putting a hand on her shoulder.

She turns around. Her black hair is r̦̳̘̗͇̗ẹ̸͚̗̤͚͉̺d͖̗̙. Her hair is red. She's taller than you remember her being. Is this the same girl? Who is this?

"What are you doing here?" She demands.

"That's what I'm asking you!" You say. "Why are you threatening me? Who the fuck are you?"

"Get out," the girl says. "Get out! GET THE FUCK OUT! GET OUT!"

She lunges for you, choking you, and you fall the ground, sputtering and yelling. She's on top of you, throttling you with inhuman strength. You catch a glimpse of Whitney leaping, airborne, tackling her - and then you black out.

"Guess I have a stalker," you say to Whitney.

"Fah," she says, stretching her back. "If you catch her rummaging through your trash or anything else shady, just let me know. I'll take care of her." She winks. "But-- it'll cost you a week of tutoring fees."

"Tutoring fees?" You say. "What are you talking about?"

Whitney stops, cocks her head. "...I don't know," she finally says. "Forget it. I must have had a brain fart."

Like most of your arguments, Whitney's anger over this latest one hasn't lasted long. She makes inane small talk at you the rest of the way to school. You try to be as civil as possible, but you couldn't care less about her problems.

The campus is already packed with students when you get there. Teenagers laughing, smiling, making out like depraved monkeys in public. You suppress a shudder. You suppress an even harder shudder when your friend Naruto Stackleford sidles up to you.

Whatever his first name is, you've long forgotten it, because there's only one that he'll respond to. As usual, he wears his construction-zone-orange pussy deflector.

"Sup nigger?" he lisps. "How was summer?"

That you ever tolerated this lumbering golem's presence is a travesty. You met in sixth grade, when your tastes were much the same; but he never graduated from Adult Swim and wouldn't be able to tell a Nichijou from a Meguca. You, on the other hand, have only become more refined -- like a good Bordeaux.

"Summer was fine..." you say, trying to beat a straight vector to your homeroom, and as quickly as possible. You give a short wave to Whitney and hurry off, but Stackleford follows like a bad odor.

"You gonna join anime club this year, man?"

"I already told you, those morons are beneath me. Besides, I'm preoccupied with Quiz Bowl. When was the last time you brushed your teeth?"

"We've got a new president this year! It'll be great!"

"I'm sure. Look, you're blocking my way. I'm sure you get that one a lot, but try to understand. Please let me through."

"Well, think about it at least."

"Uh huh."

You hurry into homeroom.

Inside homeroom, your heart stops. Sitting near the window, right behind your seat of choice, is none other than that girl from before. But that's not possible -- this an advanced senior course, and she looked like a middle schooler. There's no way she's a senior. She looks at you with that wry smile of hers.

"Come on, come on," Mr. Langely says over the din of students, calling the class to order. "I know you're all still in summer mode, but let's try to get back into the swing of things."

He writes his name on the board and introduces himself, and his credentials. He also gives a quick plug for the Quiz Bowl, announcing that tryouts will be in room 201 directly after school. "Alabaster is our star player," he says, indicating you. "He's been carrying us for three years. And-- we have other potential members in the room as well."

He looks in the parasol girl's direction. Your heart stops for a second time. This can't be happening.

"Now, why don't we do some introductions. We'll go around the room. Stand up, tell us who you are and what your interests are. Let's get to know each other."

>[x] Give your introduction; intimidate the girl.

As the whores and mansluts that make up your fellow classmates deliver their boring monologues about "really liking music" and "being into skateboarding," you steal some glances at this mysterious newcomer. She looks so plain i̜̯̳̺̹̗n̵ ̢̳̝̠̳̩̭̜h͈̹͓̣́er͉ ̯͖̘g̞̱̪̜̟̣i̺̹͈̬̫̳͘a͈̘̮͕͙̫̬n͠t ̗s̫̭͍p͕̥̩͇͘e͚̱̱͔̼c̙̝͙̞tac͍͓͉̟l͈͈̤͕ͅḙ̶̠s, so how does she project such an icy and imposing demeanor?

If she wants on the team, it can't be helped. But you won't let her get to you. When your turn comes, you decide to show her where she really stands.

"Tell us about yourself," Mr. Langley prompts.

Without standing, you announce: "Well - my name is Alabaster soliloquy and I̦̗͢ͅ ̵̺͉̟n̢͇͓̣͙ee̪̦͇͎d̪̝̀ ̙t̡̙͇͖ọ̣ ̥̤w̫͔͔̞̠̰̘͟ak͚͙͍̮̦̥e ̴̠̙̦u̙̩̹p̫̬͠ like you said, I'm on Quiz Bowl. That makes me the smartest guy in the school. Maybe in the state. I'm gonna carry the team to the national championship this year."

The rest of the class stifles some laughter.

"People who try to edge in on my glory aren't going to go very far," you continue. "That's just a fact. So if anyone here thinks they're smarter, or more cunning, they're in for a rude a̝̘ͅw̞̕a͉͈̣͜k̮̣̘̰̩̱ͅe͎n̗̞̯͔̯i̪̯͇͎̙n͖͍̝̦g̳̣̞̮̖."

The introductions continue, moving to the next person beside you in your row. It isn't for a few moments that the introductions snake back around to the parasol girl, who's the last to speak.

The girl stands, holding her hands demurely in front of her. "My name is Vivian Darkbloom. I am 13." She waits for the confused whispers that this revelation incites to subside. "Certain people whom I will not name labor under the belief that they are the smartest ones here. They are sadly mistaken. I am the smartest. I will graduate from North High at the end of this year and matriculate at UC Berkley, where I will double major in theoretical physics and European literature. My interests include quantum chromodynamics, cryptography, and the works of Marcel Proust."

The room has fallen deathly silent now. She continues. "I would say that I look forward to the coming school year, but that would be a lie. Every second I spend amongst the assorted dross of the public school system is like a screaming eternity in the stygian void of imbecility's embrace. You hardly deserve my presence. Thank you."

She sits.

>>2731012
THIS MEANS WE CAN BREAK THE TIMELINE, IF WE GO OFF THE RAILS MAYBE WE CAN GO HOME??

This Vivian girl has more or less called you out in front of the entire class. Worse yet, everyone knows it. They cast expectant stares your way. But what can you do? Leap to your feet and shout down a 13 year old girl? That would just make you look worse.

Like it or not, she won this round. So you decide not to let it bother you. But you'll have your revenge.

"Well then," Mr. Langley says. He laughs nervously. "That sure was... something. It's nice to have you, Vivian. And everyone else. Now, the syllabus..."

The first half of the day passes tortuously. Every class you have, Vivian has as well. And she always makes a point of sitting near you. Not just near you -- behind you. What's her game? By fourth period calculus, you know well enough to sit in the very back. But she merely pulls a chair out of the neatly-arranged grid and sets it behind the back row.

You hate her already. Her eyes boring into the back of your skull start to make you sweat, even in the A/C. When the bell for lunch rings, you bolt from the room and down the quickly-filling hall. Even as you jog you sense Vivian slowly following behind you -- is this just paranoia? -- and in a fit of panic you take a strange route that leads you out a pair of double-doors to a parking lot near the track. On the distance, you see that Whitney is using her lunch period to run laps. As expected.

>[x] Go eat your lunch.

You consider going to Whitney and asking for her help with your putative stalker. You feel like you need a second pair of friendly eyes looking out for you. And let's face it, you're not in the best of shape: you honestly doubt your prospects even against a 13 year old.

But your pride won't allow it. Asking Whitney, of all people, for help? Inconceivable!

You can watch your own six. If things get to crazy, you can always... go to the police, or something. You're not going to let a little girl cow you like that.

In the lunchroom, you eat at a table alone, playing on your phone. You quickly settle into the romantic storyline of "Suck My Dick or Die!"

"Suqeee!"

You look up. Stackleford is looming over you with his usual sweaty desperation for friendship. And this time, he brought backup. She loops her arms over your neck and hops up and down.

"Is this the new recruit?" She says. "He's cute!"

You flip your phone over so these two rejects can't see what you've been playing. Then you pry yourself out of this crazy girl's grip.

"What the hell, Stackleford?" You say. "Is this one of your friends from the halfway house or what?"

"I thought I'd introduce you to the new club prez!" Stackleford explains. "You know, before you made up your mind not to join. This is--"

"I'm Rose!" She says, winking and flashing a peace sign. "It's so sugoi to meet you, Alabaster!"

"You cannot be serious," you say.

"Serious as stage V cancer!" Rose says. Her smile drops for a moment: "wait, was that too much?"

"No," you cut in. "It wasn't. It was perfect, actually."

"We'd be, like, totally honored if you joined anime club this year," Rose says. "We're gonna watch so many great series! Uh, Death Note, and Evangelion. Just to start with -- and--"

You stand up. "Have fun with that," you say. "I'm not gonna be there."

"Wait!" Rose says. "Were you playing Suck My Dick or Die?"

You eye her suspiciously. How could a stupid weeb like her know about that game to begin with?

"I've been getting into nukige recently and I heard it was pretty good! So what do you think? Is Suck My Dick or Die any f--"

You cast worried glances this way and that. "Will you shut the fuck up?" You hiss. "Jesus. Talk a little louder about how you love porn games, huh?"

"You were playing a porn game?" Stackleford says, as if tuning in to this conversation for the first time.

"Shut up," you and Rose say in unison.

"Uhh... sorry," he says.

"I just get excited, that's all," Rose says. "It's not often you see someone with tastes to advanced! So... what do you think?"

It's because she's named Rose. The fact that she's named Rose, the fact that she's supposed to *be* Rose.

It just makes it hurt.

Dammit, all of you. The trap of this device is that it offers you a new and enticing world so you lose interest in the old. Don't get litersllu seduced by the promise of new characters. We have to handle the setting we already have!

You still don't trust this weird little dork, but you can at least answer her question: "yeah. It's pretty good."

"Do you have it translated? My Japanese isn't that great. I'm terrible at reading the moon runes..."

You cringe. "Yeah. I got it--"

She pulls a pink sharpie from her bag and grabs your wrist. "Just email me the magnet link!" She says.

She writes her email on your palm: xXneopetfujoXx@hotmail.com

"Sorry about the email," she says, laughing nervously. "I've had it since I was 11... I use it for spam and stuff now."

"Gee, thanks," you say, looking at your palm. "Just what I needed. Pink highlighter on my hand all day long..."

"So what do you think? Still sour on anime club?" She says. "We're meeting for the first time today after school..."

Fifth period biology is a return to the new normal. Without thinking, you take a seat in the second to last row. Like clockwork, Vivian sits at the black-top bench just behind you.

Five minutes pass, then ten. The class is growing antsy and people start throwing out the old misnomer that class is dismissed if the teacher is more than fifteen minutes late. But at the last second in saunters Ms. Carte.

All of the boys and a few of the girls find themselves staring at her buxom form. You included. Vivian, too.

Most people don't know about the rumors -- but via Whitney you've heard... things, about this woman. You can believe it. Who stays single at 30 without a reason?

"Good afternoon, boys and girls," she says, her voice like silk. "If you're not here for AP Biology, then you're in the wrong place. Please go."

She waits, but no one leaves. If there was a person in the wrong room and they decided not to go after seeing her, you wouldn't blame them.

"All right," she says. "Obviously, we focus on biology. I hope after coming through this class you all know much, much more about the subject." She smiles a pointy smile. "I expect you all to score well on the AP exam. Please see me for out of class help if you're struggling...

"Now before we get started, I need to assign a couple roles. First, I need someone tall who can help me in the storage room on experiment days... a boy, preferably."
